— Samfunnet i Ås

FREE LIST

The “Free List” is a list with approximately 250 names that have free entrance at almost all events at Samfunnet, with exception of the largest parties. These people

also receive kr. 150 that is submitted to a joint pot within their committee, which is spent on social events for the committee members. Committee members are also on the guest list for the legendary Intern party, where prices are cut, singsong booms and dark corners are filled with love.

HOW DO I GET ON THE FREE LIST?

The people on the Free List are involved in one of Samfunnet’s many committees and work about 30 hours per semester. This corresponds to approximately four evening events. Without these hours of voluntary determination Samfunnet would not function, and life as student in Ås would be very different. No concerts, no Bodega, no culture… Thank you, Thorvald and Tora, for diligent students!

WHAT IS THE FREE-FREE LIST?

Only the “bosses” of Samfunnet are allowed on this list. People on the free-free list get free entrance at ALL events at Samfunnet in Ås, as well as getting access to the less-known rooms of the building. When it rumbles in the depths of Samfunnet long after closing hours, it is likely one of these people who are taking a long-awaited break. The majority of members of the free-free list are committee leaders and those sitting on the board of the various organs of Samfunnet. These are people who devote large amounts of their time to Samfunnet, and work more than most people would believe. Many work on average 20 hours a week, which is why they deserve their title as bosses!

At the bar your main work is serving partygoers drinks. Samfunnet has several beer bars and always one bar serving spirits.

Free courses about beer and wine are offered to all members, as well as a spirit course where you’ll learn how to mix good drinks.

THE CONCERT UNIT

CONSOLIDATION
